Tea - Help!
Ok, I'm drinking enough water to sink a ship. I've completey given up pop and I can't stand diet pop. But I'm getting kinda tired of just water and would like to add some variety. I've never been a fan of tea. Does anyone have some suggestions on flavors/brands/kinds of tea that a non-tea drinker like me might enjoy? I'm…

How many calories burned?
I wonder how many calories crying burns? I don't know why I let him do this to me. I try to be civil, even friendly, with him for the kids' sake. But he is such a selfish, self-centered, egotistical, jerk among oh, so many other things. And here I am, crying again. He's not an MFP member so I hope I'm not breaking the…

Fiber One ?
I've seen recipes using ground up fiber one as a coating. Are there any other cereals that anyone's used or can recommend instead?

Netflix vs. Blockbuster
Hi All, I'm thinking about joining Netflix or Blockbuster online so I can get an everchanging variety of workout dvds so I don't get bored and so I can get more variety. Of course, this is in theory. Right now, I'm lucky if the twins will let me see 10 minutes of anything but my ultimate goal is to be able to have an…

Holding my breath and dancing around the room
I got a HRM last week on eBay and it should be here any day! I can't stand the anticipation. It's killing me. I was really, REALLY hoping it would be here yesterday. I got home from work and scanned the door to see if there was a package sitting there - none. Went into the house to see if someone had brought it in and had…

Mother's Day Success
The kids and I just got back from our Mother's day lunch at a local Chinese/American place. After getting lots of great input online last night and doing a little research of my own, I ordered the Chow Har Kew. Shrimp with assorted vegetables in a white sauce. I asked for the meal to be steamed instead of fried and for the…

HELP!
Ok, we're having a Mother's Day lunch tomorrow at a local Chinese/American place. I know there won't be many (if any) really good choices on the american portion of the menu. Anyone got any ideas how I can enjoy lunch without totally blowing it for the day????

Feeling Yucky
I don't know why but I'm just feeling icky today. I feel mildy nauseous. Really, the only way to put it is icky. I know it's not TTOM and no, I'm not pregnant. But when I feel like this and the yuckiness seems centered in my stomach, it's hard for me to not eat all the time. I had a 100 calorie pack of wheat thins with my…

Need a little guidance, please!
Ok, I've been on MFP for a few weeks and I'm doing well. I've lost 9 lbs. so far and feel better than I have in . . . well . . . ever. But here's what I'm wondering. I'm 38, female, 5'1", 265 (yikes, I can't believe I said that out loud). Right now I've got my daily calories without exercise at 1300. Should I up them or…

Can anyone tell me?
I don't want to be a slave to the scale and I'm thinking about only weighing myself maybe once a month so I can stay motivated. I've got a LOT of weight to lose (160 lbs.) to reach my ultimate goal. Right now my daily goal without exercise calories is 1300. Do you think I'll be ok going a month between updating my goals?

I just have to say
This place is amazing and even though I don't know any of you, I love you all. :smooched: I've struggled with my weight all my life. A couple years ago I lost 90 lbs. and then the most amazing thing happened to me. I got pregnant with my twins. I had given up on ever having children. I'm sure that big weight loss had…
